[Q] My GPS hasn't worked since updating to 2.2 - help! - RESOLVED

Hi,
I got a Samsung Galaxy S here in Australia, rooted it and upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2 I know that GPS worked just fine with 2.1, I was able to walk home and see my position updating very nicely on Google maps
Since updating to 2.2, GPS hasn't worked at all. When I turn it on, and start an application that uses GPS (Navigation, Maps, etc), the GPS icon sits there and flashes back and forth between those two types of icons and I don't get anything on the maps which shows me where I am. I haven't chased this up since upgrading, but it's starting to bug me now
After searching these forums for 'gps not working', I've pulled down the 'GPS test' application and I don't know for sure, but it appears to find one satellite:
PRN SNR Elev Azim Flags
2 11.0 74.0 150.0
But the GPS icon just sits there flashing back and forth.
I may have missed something since upgrading, do I need to do something to the phone to get my GPS working again?
Thanks!

OK, I seem to have fixed the problem I turned on "Use wireless networks" and voila! I now have successful GPS lock and position in my maps
I would have thought that you could use GPS without having "Use wireless networks" turned on!?

Wouldn't call it a successful GPS lock. Since you got it with the mobile networks. (in my case when I use it . the accuracy in my village is about 1000-1500m since the BTS is that much far from me )
So if you get into an area with weak mobile networks, wont help you much .
Wouldnt call this as resolved with "BAD GPS" cuz your GPS still sucks as before (and doesnt work , you just found a workaround that was there also before , 2.2.1 has even some other function for GPS that tries to fix it (or help?) )
But since you can use it now, its ok I guess . OH and there are kinda almost no real fixes for this. Most of SGS GPS suck . There is GPS aids, shutting down wifi, GPS status app, changing the something according to your country.

Ok!
I got the same problem as the user from the post.
GPS worked like a charm on my Galaxy S (NDrive or Google) running 2.1.
I updated it to Froyo 2.2.1 JS7 and since then it doesn`t work anymore.
I can't get a fix.
I did the GPS position test and It locks on 8 satelites. Why the F%CK it doesn`t work anymore?
I am almost going back to Eclair.
Any sugestions?
TY!

So you get a lock when doing the GPS test, but no luck in any other applications? I couldn't get a lock at all until I turned on my wireless as well as the GPS, then it worked for GPS test as well as applications...

I get a lock on 8 satelites on the Location Test with and without "Use Wireless connections".
BUT
I can't get a lock when I am using Google maps, with or without "Use Wireless connections".
I bought the AIDS GPS app on Market, but it did't work neither.

PROBLEM SOLVED!
I updated to Gingerbread (2.3.3) and my problem was solved. Hope it helps somebody!

I also installed GPS Aids and paid for it.
This program does automatic changes to your GPS settings.
Maybe it works for you.

[Q] Problem with GPS - never locks

Anyone else having problems using the GPS on this device? I've tried several different GPS apps and none are working. The problem is that is finds 2-3 satellites, but never gets locked.

1 - Download "GPS Status & Toolbox" (EclipSim) from market
2 - Enable Location from Settings in order to use A-GPS data.
3 - Enable Use GPS from Settings
4 - Run "GPS Status & Toolbox" and then go to "GPS Status & Toolbox" menu where you can clear A-GPS and then download newest A-GPS data.
If you can't get a fix after this, you might have faulty SW or HW

You could also try "GpsFix" from the Market.

Thanks I'll give them a try.
I've now also tried to pair this phone with my holux m 1000 (bluetooth), but can't even get that to work. I managed to pair them, but it won't connect to the phone.
Is it just mine or is this phone so useless?

i am having the same problem too

Hi,
I'm using Sygic Mobile Maps 10 8.2 and Google Maps (unlocked with navigation). Both work fine with GPS and fix is within 5 sec.
Yet to try my stereo Bluetooth headset, will try in a sec ...
Edit: Headset at work, will try tomorrow...

This phone is very good for gps navigation.
Google Maps Navigation, Sygic Mobile Maps 10, Copilot Live, Navigon and Igomyway are working fine. They give me a lock within a few seconds.
A few tips:
Under Settings - Location and Security:
- enable using wireless networks
- enable GPS-satellites
If you're using WiFi the fix will be faster then without.
Oh yes, and one more thing: don't forget to insert your SIM-card.

For me to get gps fix, i need to stand outdoor without any roof on top of me, this is so bad if I'm indoor and beside a window, i can see a few satellites but it just wont lock on.
Is this software problem? I don't wish that it is my hardware problem

lol its a gps you use it outdoor not indoor. is not designed to work indoor. so i can't see you problem?

Fixed it!
I called LG, and got the recipe for fixing the gps.
Do a "hard factory reset"
Turn off phone
hold HOME and VOLUME DOWN and POWER until you see the android. Then wait.
Done. It now sees 10 satelittes indoors, and uses them all, as opposed to maybe seeing one, and never using any.

LG made a booboo.
There is no gps.conf in /system/etc, so there is no assistance. I pushed the file from a Nexus One (attached) into place and that sorts it.

I tried to use gps.conf and supl method but no luck, the issue weren't there. My gps was a jerk, last week i spent 30minutes to fix the satellite while driving in town. Even standing under the sky, the fastest I am able to fix is 200seconds, not to mention there are many times they wont even fix.
But my problem was stopped once i changed from stock to other rom. so I guess there is something else wrong in the stock rom, as the other roms are able to perform well even without gps.conf. (around 20-30 sec fix time).
So I guess only when your gps is able to lock satellite, gps.conf will help to speed it up. At least that's what happen to me

CM7 GPS not working

Hi,
I found so much different informations about GPS in CM7 but nothing really worked, and I don't know what is correct!
In Modaco FR19 it worked like charm!
I have the latest CM7 (from 07.04.2011), so I have the lto.dat that came with the rom, and my gps.conf looks like:
NTP_SERVER=de.pool.ntp.org
the three XTRA_SERVER...
SUPL_HOST=supl.nokia.com
SUPL_PORT=7275
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks

Ignore your gps.conf, it isn't used by the O2X. Make sure you're running at least #65, as there is a GPS fix included.
Edit: I see you do have a build new enough for that, so good stuff. How many locations have you tried it in? Use GPS status too see how many sats are picked up and what signal strength they're at.

This won't contribute much...but..
I have the 07.03 CM7 (#66)and;
-in maps, the time it takes to get the signal varies from instantly to a few mins or so.
- in navigation it does not appear to work.

Hi,
So far I only tested it in one location (will test it now in different)
I don't get gps location neither in maps nor navigation!
GPS Status says 0 in view and 0 in use...
So there is nothing I can do, but wait for a fix from CM7?

There isn't likely to be a fix for your individual phone, considering it works for everyone else.
Have you tried re-flashing it? Tried wiping it?

Ok it's fixed, I cleared AGPS data and changed location from inside to outside and got a gps fix in 2 seconds...
Thanks guys

Had Problems with both
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App

I am on the nightly #73. Google navigation works ok, Sygic (latest trial from the market) also gets a solid fix most of the time.
Copilot 9 premium jumps to a location then sits there for some time and does not track the movement, then jumps again and does the same. I had it working ok on stock. My O2X is originally V10d UK version. Copilot 9 UK and Ireland.

Tried to use the tricks from other threads: running GPSTest with a GPS fix in the background and then switching to Copilot. Does not work. BTW a colleague with an SGS on stock also has exactly the same problem.

Hmmm I don't have any reboots with the current CM7 nightly, but I had a few of them on stock. I hated stock and I like CM7 a lot. Would be a pity to go back.

Regarding the GPS lock times.
Be PATIENT the first time you try to get the lock.
For me it took about 5 minutes to get the lock for the first time. After that initial lock it now takes under 10 seconds.
Try using GPS status from market to see the satellites.
Needless to say, do this outside for best signal

[Q] GPS AOKP Help

Okay guys, so I know that this question has been done to death but I really can't find anything about it.
I recently installed the most recent July 9th version of AOKP. Everything works fine except for my gps.
I have done "• If your GPS doesn't work after flashing, fastboot back to stock ICS, then flash this is CWM." this step in the AOKP ROM thread multiple times.
When I'm on stock, obviously the GPS works fine and can pick up satellites ect. However, when I run the GPS status app or the GPS test app now, it tells me the GPS is on, and the gps icon blinks in the status bar but no satellites are found. I have tried resetting GPS and getting Xtra data in the GPS status app. In the GPS test app, it tells me the GPS is on but the light is yellow in the box that says GPS status. I also have tried clearing and updating AGPS in this app.
Any ideas?

have the same questions , i use the CM and MIUI ,the GPS can not work ,but use the 4.1.1 the GPS works fine....
then i flashed the CM ang miui again ,the GPS can not work again ...
can not find a good way to solve it.

What you get is not really GPS data... If you get it only after flashing gapps, it indicates it is Google location service based on mobile network or WiFi...

I was outside when I was testing it.
It was the first time I needed GPS since I started using AOKP. I was fiddling with it in the parking lot for a while. When it didn't work, I went home and did what I said above and then sat in my car and tried to get it to work.

when i tested the GPS, the wifi and gprs were both off. Only the GPS is on .

Some of the gps files were tweaked in the past week or so (dev-team side). Later today I'll be building a new PAC with those updated files. If GPS breaks I'll see if I can't find a fix then. Might need a new GPS lib or some tweaking to the repos....can't really say anything concrete right now.

Bumping this thread again to see if anyone who has had this problem can help me. Just went back to stock after wiping everything. Made sure gps worked. Then I factory reset, cleared the two caches, and flashed AOKP and GAPPS.
GPS still does not work. No satellites picked up, just constant blinking up in the status bar.

I tried restarting my phone and that got the GPS to turn on. But it wouldnt turn off itself whenever you exit an app like Maps or a GPS status app. The icon will continue to flash on the tool bar for a while and eventually turn of by itself. If you try to activate the GPS again you need to restart your phone.
Im not sure if this is a 4.4.2 problem or a unlocked/rooted problem. Ill try to revert my phone back to stock tonight

my gps doesnt have that problem..download an app called gps status, it shows how many satellites are in the field, then click on agps reset, then download then reboot..some people report this method fixes their gps, but doesnt fix mine ..keep me informed

I'm having the same issue lately after sending my phone to service to fix camera... My gps doesn't want to fix satellites. I tried reverting to stock (keeping s-off and unlocked bootloader) installed a guru reset rom and applied otas but no way till now. Last chance will be flashing a ruu, didn't have time yet but I'll do it in a couple days. I will keep you guys informed, if anyone succeeds in fixing it, please post how you did it!
Gps status sometimes sees satellites but signal is too low and never grows. I even tried tweaking gps.conf file a lot but no way...
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app

Update: i tried with a RUU zip with android 4.1.2 and applied otas till 4.3 (that was the last one i received) on one of this upgrades camera was unable to launch but on the next one it came back. And no way to get gps working with any one of these upgrades. Gps status sees a number of satellites (weird thing, after every new flash glonass satellites appear with some sort of signal -- snr <= 1.18 --, until i reset gps data and download new agps files, then they never come back until i flash some other version/rom) but never gets an acceptable signal enough to lock..
Really don't know what else to try, i think i will send back to service..

Any update on this?
Im having issues with my GPS as well. I use the ViperOne ROM (latest) with the ElementalX firmware. When I try to use Google Maps the following will happen:
1) GPS will find my location ok and calculate a route ok.
2) I start driving and the blue arrow in google maps does not move OR it thinks im on a different road than I actually am. When it thinks im on a different road the arrow may or may not move...more often than not it just stays still.
3) I have driven for over 10min hoping it will eventually start to work but it doesn't.
4) The only way I have got it to work is to pull over, stop nav, close maps and try again. Generally on the 2nd or 3rd try it will start to work correctly.
My GPS was working fine before I rooted and installed a custom ROM. I will try wiping and flashing ViperOne tonight and use the stock firmware instead of ElementalX. Will report back to see if this works.

Nop no good still. If anyone has a fix for this it would be appreciated!!!

Same issues here after sending in for repair. GPS sees about 18-20 satellites per the gps status apps, but only fixes on 3-4 with weak signals. Tried a few gps.conf tweaks which help but seems that they're just using more of the AGPS data and not actually the GPS chip.
EDIT: Have tried a few fresh wipes and different ROMs, GPE edition, etc. - all the same. This never happened in the past :/

I have tried updating the firmware to the latest version and different ROMS but that did not help. However I discovered that in google maps if I select the walk mode my navigation will work! Unfortunately thats no help as I need the car mode to work.
I installed GPS Status and it locks on to plenty of satellites so im not sure why Google Maps (or any nav apps) will not work.
I came to the same conclusion as you. It seems like the phone is using AGPS and not the GPS data.

I did a little research the other day ...I can't find the link but I remember most of it..
Apparently one of the Google+ and/or playstore silent background updates mess up gps on google maps for HTC One.
Using the 'GPS essentials' and 'Gps status' apps you can actually lock on to all the gps satellites fine.
Also using navigation,like you did...also locks on fine.
Its the standard google maps over view and a few other apps that use it (like my bus map app) that are affected.
One work around is apparently (didn't work for me though) going into the google settings app and tinkering with Google+ settings. turning it off or clearing it or something.
This is a software issue. I'm on untampered pure stock.

So I have resolved the GPS issue on my device. I tried a whole bunch of things so im not totally sure what fixed it. I:
Removed HTC Backup using root uninstaller
Using Faster GPS set my location and added the TRUE flag to AGPS_Enable
Using GPSFix I waited until it locked onto a satellite.
Rebooted my phone then tested with GPS Test. My phone locked onto about 8 satellites.
Tried Google maps navigation and it worked.
So far its been 3 days, 2 reboots and counting. Hopefully something similar works for you.

If you're rooted editing the GPS.conf file fixes it perfectly. The default setting are just totally crap

And GPS has stopped working again. What a pain.

Go here. This is how I fixed my HTC one. It works on all android phones. The default GPS.conf file is rubbish
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953630

I tried the gps.conf file in that link. It seemed to be slightly better at first, locking onto 3 satellites with yellow SNR in GPS Test. But then I tried resetting and downloading the AGPS data with GPS Status and after it doesn't even detect satellites anymore.

Question to the posters in the thread. Have any of you dropped your phone before this started happening? I've gone through 2 M7s and the GPS stopped working properly after taking a nasty spill and have been unsuccessful in remedying the problem.

I have dropped my phone several times however it is in a protective case. My issue started out of the blue: one day it was working just fine, the next it was highly erratic...and has been since.
